I'm looking for some pics of fenderless rat rods with more modern engines, specifically carbureted v-8's. I know flatheads and nailheads look awesome but i'm wondering what a '70's - '90's v-8 looks like in one. So if you've got some pics of that i'd sure like to see them.

TIA

Instead of posting my Bucket build pics again look at the below thread for a 5.3 LS with a carb. The engine is a 2002 out of a silverado.

They're starting to have more in the car mags. They're cheap now, make great power in stock form and with a cam and headers they make serious power! [cl

Here is the 331 Ford in my 27. I like rods that look old but that have modern HP and dependability.

Here's a 5.3 LS engine with a carb & the coil packs inside the firewall. I wish I was the happy owner. Talked to him for quite a while. Says it goes like stink!
